Since OCaml 5.1.1, changes to custom blocks caused C finalizers that
call caml_enter_blocking_section to stop working (if they ever did
before). They are relatively inflexible compared to registering an
OCaml finalizer (Gc.finalise) to call Guestfs.close, so use that
instead.

Using 'virt-customize --tar-in some.tar:/dir -a disk.img' will unpack
'some.tar' into '/dir' in the guest. Note that this will not work for
compressed tar files as written since the underlying guestfs_tar_in
function requires the compression type to be set explicitly and
defaults to no compression (it does not auto-detect or default to
compression).
OCaml 5.1 changes the names of these libraries for some reason.
Also in OCaml 5.1, if using those libraries you must link with -lzstd.
Since zstd was already described as "required" (although we only used
it in the appliance), there is no official change to the requirements,
but I have added a configure time check for the library.

Intermittent test failures in virt-filesystems showed that when using
the pvs_full API, the pv_name field in the returned list of structures
was not being reverse translated. As a result internal partition
names could appear in the output of virt-filesystems.

The just added --chown option previously used StringPair, splitting
the argument as ‘UID.GID:FILENAME’. However this will not work if we
ever extend this with the ability to use user or group names, since
they may contain dot (but not colon). Add a new StringTriplet type
and split the argument string three ways. The new option becomes:
virt-customize ... --chown UID:GID:FILENAME

On QEMU 7.2.0+, if "passt" is available, ask QEMU for passt ("stream")
rather than SLIRP ("user") networking.
For this, we need to run passt ourselves. Given that passt daemonizes by
default, start it with our traditional function guestfs_int_cmd_run(). Ask
passt to save its PID file, because in case something goes wrong before
we're completely sure the appliance (i.e. QEMU) is up and running, we'll
need to kill passt, the *grandchild*, ourselves.
Pass "--one-off" to passt (same as libvirt). This way, once we have proof
that QEMU has connected to passt (because the appliance shows signs of
life), we need not clean up passt ourselves -- once QEMU exits, passt will
see an EOF on the unix domain socket, and exit as well.
Passt is way more flexible than SLIRP, and passt normally intends to
imitate the host environment in the guest as much as possible. This means
that, when switching from SLIRP to passt, the guest would see changes to
the following:
- guest IP address,
- guest subnet mask,
- host (= gateway) IP address,
- host (= gateway) MAC address.
Extract the SLIRP defaults into the new macros NETWORK_GW_IP and
NETWORK_GW_MAC, and pass them explicitly to passt. In particular,
"tests/rsync/test-rsync.sh" fails without setting the host address
(NETWORK_GW_IP) properly.
(These artifacts can be verified in the appliance with "virt-rescue
--network", by running "ip addr", "ip route", and "ip neighbor" at the
virt-rescue prompt. There are four scenarios: two libguest backends, times
passt being installed or not installed.)

Introduce a small function for creating pathnames for PID files.
guestfs_int_make_pid_path() is something of an amalgamation of
guestfs_int_make_temp_path() [1] and guestfs_int_create_socketname() [2]:
- it creates a pathname under sockdir, like [2],
- it uses the handle's unique counter, like [1],
- it takes a name like both [1] and [2], but the name is not size-limited
like in [2], plus we hardcode the suffix from [1] as ".pid".

Consider the following inverted call tree (effectively a dependency tree
-- callees are at the top and near the left margin):
lazy_make_tmpdir() [lib/tmpdirs.c]
guestfs_int_lazy_make_tmpdir() [lib/tmpdirs.c]
guestfs_int_make_temp_path() [lib/tmpdirs.c]
guestfs_int_lazy_make_sockdir() [lib/tmpdirs.c]
guestfs_int_create_socketname() [lib/launch.c]
lazy_make_tmpdir() is our common workhorse / helper function that
centralizes the mkdtemp() function call.
guestfs_int_lazy_make_tmpdir() and guestfs_int_lazy_make_sockdir() are the
next level functions, both calling lazy_make_tmpdir(), just feeding it
different dirname generator functions, and different "is_runtime_dir"
qualifications. These functions create temp dirs for various, more
specific, purposes (see the manual and "lib/guestfs-internal.h" for more
details).
On a yet higher level are guestfs_int_make_temp_path() and
guestfs_int_create_socketname() -- they serve for creating *entries* in
those specific temp directories.
The discrepancy here is that, although all the other functions live in
"lib/tmpdirs.c", guestfs_int_create_socketname() is defined in
"lib/launch.c". That makes for a confusing code reading; move the function
to "lib/tmpdirs.c", just below its sibling function
guestfs_int_make_temp_path().
While at it, correct the leading comment on
guestfs_int_create_socketname() -- the socket pathname is created in the
socket directory, not in the temporary directory.

We generate the <interface type="user"> element on libvirt 3.8.0+ already.
For selecting passt rather than SLIRP, we only need to insert the child
element <backend type='passt'>. Make that child element conditional on
libvirt 9.0.0+, plus "passt --help" being executable.
For the latter, place the new helper function guestfs_int_passt_runnable()
in "lib/launch.c" -- we're going to use the same function for the direct
backend as well.
This change exposes a number of (perceived) shortcomings in libvirt; I've
filed <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2222766> about those.

Currently we #define NETWORK_ADDRESS as "169.254.0.0". That's a bug in
libguestfs, but it's been invisible -- thus far it's been canceled out by
*independent* bugs in *both* QEMU and libvirt.
(1) With the direct backend, the current definition of NETWORK_ADDRESS
results in the following QEMU command line option:
-netdev user,id=usernet,net=169.254.0.0/16
According to the QEMU documentation, the "net" property here is supposed
to specify the *exact* IP address that the guest will receive. The guest
however receives 169.254.2.15 (I've checked that with virt-rescue).
In other words, libguestfs doesn't do what the QEMU documentation says,
and QEMU doesn't do what the QEMU documentation says either. The end
result has been good enough -- but only until now.
(2) With the libvirt backend, the current definition of NETWORK_ADDRESS
results in the following domain XML snippet:
<interface type="user">
<model type="virtio"/>
<ip family="ipv4" address="169.254.0.0" prefix="16"/>
</interface>
which libvirt translates, in turn, to
-netdev {"type":"user","net":"169.254.0.0/16","id":"hostnet0"}
According to the domain XML documentation, the @address attribute here is
again supposed to specify the *exact* IP address that the guest will
receive. However, the guest receives 169.254.2.15 (I've checked that with
virt-rescue).
In other words, libguestfs doesn't do what the libvirt documentation says,
and libvirt doesn't do what the libvirt documentation says either. The end
result has been good enough -- but only until now.
Where things break down though is the subsequent passt enablement, in the
rest of this series. For example, when using the libvirt backend together
with passt, libvirt translates the @address attribute to passt's
"--address" option, but passt takes the address *verbatim*, and not as a
subnet base address. That difference is visible in the appliance; for
example, when running virt-rescue on a Fedora 38 image, and issuing "ip
addr". Namely, after enabling passt for the libvirt backend, the
guest-visible IP address changes from 169.254.2.15 to 169.254.0.0, which
is an IP address that makes no sense for an endpoint.
Fix the latent bug by specifying the actual guest IP address we want, in
NETWORK_ADDRESS.
